BROOKLYN SAVINGS BANK May Move to Danislson as a Matter of Cenvenience and Business Advant- age. The Brooklyn Savings bank contem- plates coming to Danielson to do busi- ness. At a meeting of the corporators 2nd trustees of the institution, sixteen being present, there was unanimous action in favor of petitioning the legls lature to authorize the bank to remove to Danlelson. In case of fallure to get this authority, it 15 given out by one connected with the bank, advantage is to be taken of that section of the stitution’s charter permitting those in charge of it to locate its business in any part of the town of Brooklyn, bringing the bank to the West Side of Danielson, which is in the town of Brooklyn. The Brooklyn Savings bank com- menced to do business in September, 18 Since that time it has been lo- cated at Brooklyn Green, and has had an eminently successful business, its location and fleld considered. The last reports of the condition of the insti- tution, issued January 1 of this year, show that it has deposits in excess of $1,675,000. ‘An official of the bank stated Tues- day that 66 per cent. of its business mes from Danielson and vicinity. The project of removing the bank to Danielson has been under considera- tion for a long time, he said, and those in charge of its destinies consider that it is for the best interests of the in- stitution and its depositors that the change of location be made. This offi- cia] laid particular stress on the state- ment that the action taken by the bank officials represents a move entirely in- dependent on the part of the Brooklyn Savings bank, and that what has been| done does not Indicate any alliance with any other financial institution in Danielson or any intent at . merger. It is simply a desire to take advantage of greater opportunities for getting business than is attainable in the bank's present location, four miles from a steamgor trolley road A trustee of the bank sald Tues@ay that in case the bank fails to get legis- Jative authority fo come to Danielson something no longer anticipated, a site for » new building is available on the West Side. This site is next west from the Quinebaug store and is at present occupied by a tenement building As far as the accommodation of deposit- ors from Danielson and vicinity is con- cerned this West Side site would be almost as convenient as one nearer the business section. Jumper Useful and Dependablit In a talk relative to discarding the | two-wheeled jumper used by one of the | hose companies of the fire department, | Chief A. P. Woodward makes it very | clear that he considers the little anti- | quated piece of apparatus one of the most valuable that the borough owns. It can be gotten out in much quicker time than the horse-drawn trucks, as horses are not kept at the station, and time saving is of very first importance in getting to a fire. For alarms in the business section the little jumper is the one best yet for making time, as the runs are short. Even though we had another new modern truck, says the chief, 1 would keep the little one in Hrsi-class shape for service. It has never vet falled to deliver the goods. and stamped paper Night Scheol Attendance Averages 50.
